Post natal sex

Something I experienced that I think new moms should be talking about more. The first time I had sex after having a baby was not enjoyable. How I described it then was it was like a ‘sore throat’ just down there where the friction felt sore. It’s normal, it eventually goes away it took a couple months for it to feel normal again.

Definitely! There’s women that can’t get enough sex after birth but I think it can be scary to some when things feel different down there

After my first son it kinda hurt didn’t feel good at all, after my second son it actually didnt hurt it felt like how it used to be after a yr or 2 after my first son if that makes sense

Baby’s 1st shots

My mother-in-law wants to come over the day my baby has her first shots since leaving the hospital, and I don’t want her to come over, but her dad says she could help, but I don’t think she could help. Am I wrong? I feel like having her there would only stress me out more because I’m nervous about the shots to begin with. Don’t get me wrong, I love my mother-in-law, but I don’t want someone trying to hold my baby when she’s upset.

Shaving etc

Now ik this isn’t a baby question but I really want some sort of bush trimmer (idk how else to word that sorry) I hate shaving because of the itch but it’s just uncomfy if it gets too long. I was looking at the Gillette one but apparently it only works as long as the first charge and then never again. Recommendations please ladies tysm

Wipes or cotton wool and water straight from birth

What’s the consensus?

Breast milk collector

Hiya, has anyone used a breast milk collector to collect leaking milk at night? I didn't realise my breast milk was even leaking until I forgot to wear breast pads. The milk had leaked through to my bedsheets.... I'm wondering if a breast milk collector would be good to capture this?
